A small, but VERY important point;always check before you get airborne that you can set course from the overhead.. .At our place, because of the close proximity of a H24 fast jet military airfield, overhead joins and setting course from the overhead is not permitted.. .Even though this is clearly published, and pilots are briefed if they ring up prior to departure, we still get requests from them to carry out the manouvre.
